Impact: New way of using the blktrace infrastructure
This drops the requirement of userspace utilities to use the blktrace
facility.
Configuration is done thru sysfs, adding a "trace" directory to the
partition directory where blktrace can be enabled for the associated
request_queue.
The same filters present in the IOCTL interface are present as sysfs
device attributes.
The /sys/block/sdX/sdXN/trace/enable file allows tracing without any
filters.
The other files in this directory: pid, act_mask, start_lba and end_lba
can be used with the same meaning as with the IOCTL interface.
Using the sysfs interface will only setup the request_queue->blk_trace
fields, tracing will only take place when the "blk" tracer is selected
via the ftrace interface, as in the following example:
To see the trace, one can use the /d/tracing/trace file or the
/d/tracign/trace_pipe file, with semantics defined in the ftrace
documentation in Documentation/ftrace.txt.
[root@f10-1 ~]# cat /t/trace
kjournald-305 [000] 3046.491224: 8,1 A WBS 6367 + 8 <- (8,1) 6304

<idle>-0 [000] 3046.511914: 8,1 C RS 6367 + 8 [6367]
[root@f10-1 ~]#
The default line context (prefix) format is the one described in the ftrace
documentation, with the blktrace specific bits using its existing format,
described in blkparse(8).
If one wants to have the classic blktrace formatting, this is possible by
using:
[root@f10-1 ~]# echo blk_classic > /t/trace_options
[root@f10-1 ~]# cat /t/trace
8,1 0 3046.491224 305 A WBS 6367 + 8 <- (8,1) 6304
8,1 0 3046.491227 305 Q R 6367 + 8 [kjournald]
8,1 0 3046.491236 305 G RB 6367 + 8 [kjournald]
8,1 0 3046.491239 305 P NS [kjournald]

8,1 0 3046.511914 0 C RS 6367 + 8 [6367]
[root@f10-1 ~]#
Using the ftrace standard format allows more flexibility, such
as the ability of asking for backtraces via trace_options:
[root@f10-1 ~]# echo noblk_classic > /t/trace_options
[root@f10-1 ~]# echo stacktrace > /t/trace_options
[root@f10-1 ~]# cat /t/trace
kjournald-305 [000] 3318.826779: 8,1 A WBS 6375 + 8 <- (8,1) 6312

<= generic_make_request
<= submit_bio
<= submit_bh
<= sync_dirty_buffer
<= journal_commit_transaction
<= kjournald
<= kthread
Please read the ftrace documentation to use aditional, standardized
tracing filters such as /d/tracing/trace_cpumask, etc.
See also /d/tracing/trace_mark to add comments in the trace stream,
that is equivalent to the /d/block/sdaN/msg interface.

The commit 818827669d85b84241696ffef2de485db46b0b5e (block: make
blk_rq_map_user take a NULL user-space buffer) extended
blk_rq_map_user to accept a NULL user-space buffer with a READ
command. It was necessary to convert sg to use the block layer mapping
API.
This patch extends blk_rq_map_user again for a WRITE command. It is
necessary to convert st and osst drivers to use the block layer
apping API.

This fixes bio_copy_user_iov to properly handle the partial mappings
with struct rq_map_data (which only sg uses for now but st and osst
will shortly). It adds the offset member to struct rq_map_data and
changes blk_rq_map_user to update it so that bio_copy_user_iov can add
an appropriate page frame via bio_add_pc_page().

Original patch from Nikanth Karthikesan <knikanth@suse.de>
When a queue exits the queue lock is taken and cfq_exit_queue() would free all
the cic's associated with the queue.
But when a task exits, cfq_exit_io_context() gets cic one by one and then
locks the associated queue to call __cfq_exit_single_io_context. It looks like
between getting a cic from the ioc and locking the queue, the queue might have
exited on another cpu.
Fix this by rechecking the cfq_io_context queue key inside the queue lock
again, and not calling into __cfq_exit_single_io_context() if somebody
beat us to it.

We have two seperate config entries for large devices/files. One
is CONFIG_LBD that guards just the devices, the other is CONFIG_LSF
that handles large files. This doesn't make a lot of sense, you typically
want both or none. So get rid of CONFIG_LSF and change CONFIG_LBD wording
to indicate that it covers both.

zero is invalid for max_phys_segments, max_hw_segments, and
max_segment_size. It's better to use use min_not_zero instead of
min. min() works though (because the commit 0e435ac makes sure that
these values are set to the default values, non zero, if a queue is
initialized properly).
With this patch, blk_queue_stack_limits does the almost same thing
that dm's combine_restrictions_low() does. I think that it's easy to
remove dm's combine_restrictions_low.

disk_map_sector_rcu() returns a partition from a sector offset,
which we use for IO statistics on a per-partition basis. The
lookup itself is an O(N) list lookup, where N is the number of
partitions. This actually hurts performance quite a bit, even
on the lower end partitions. On higher numbered partitions,
it can get pretty bad.
Solve this by adding a one-hit cache for partition lookup.
This makes the lookup O(1) for the case where we do most IO to
one partition. Even for mixed partition workloads, amortized cost
is pretty close to O(1) since the natural IO batching makes the
one-hit cache last for lots of IOs.

This basically limits the hardware queue depth to 4*quantum at any
point in time, which is 16 with the default settings. As CFQ uses
other means to shrink the hardware queue when necessary in the first
place, there's really no need for this extra heuristic. Additionally,
it ends up hurting performance in some cases.

Empty barrier required special handling in __elv_next_request() to
complete it without letting the low level driver see it.
With previous changes, barrier code is now flexible enough to skip the
BAR step using the same barrier sequence selection mechanism. Drop
the special handling and mask off q->ordered from start_ordered().
Remove blk_empty_barrier() test which now has no user.

Barrier completion had the following assumptions.
* start_ordered() couldn't finish the whole sequence properly. If all
actions are to be skipped, q->ordseq is set correctly but the actual
completion was never triggered thus hanging the barrier request.
* Drain completion in elv_complete_request() assumed that there's
always at least one request in the queue when drain completes.
Both assumptions are true but these assumptions need to be removed to
improve empty barrier implementation. This patch makes the following
changes.
* Make start_ordered() use blk_ordered_complete_seq() to mark skipped
steps complete and notify __elv_next_request() that it should fetch
the next request if the whole barrier has completed inside
start_ordered().
* Make drain completion path in elv_complete_request() check whether
the queue is empty. Empty queue also indicates drain completion.
* While at it, convert 0/1 return from blk_do_ordered() to false/true.

In all barrier sequences, the barrier write itself was always assumed
to be issued and thus didn't have corresponding control flag. This
patch adds QUEUE_ORDERED_DO_BAR and unify action mask handling in
start_ordered() such that any barrier action can be skipped.
This patch doesn't introduce any visible behavior changes.

* Because barrier mode can be changed dynamically, whether barrier is
supported or not can be determined only when actually issuing the
barrier and there is no point in checking it earlier. Drop barrier
support check in generic_make_request() and __make_request(), and
update comment around the support check in blk_do_ordered().
* There is no reason to check discard support in both
generic_make_request() and __make_request(). Drop the check in
__make_request(). While at it, move error action block to the end
of the function and add unlikely() to q existence test.
* Barrier request, be it empty or not, is never passed to low level
driver and thus it's meaningless to try to copy back req->sector to
bio->bi_sector on error. In addition, the notion of failed sector
doesn't make any sense for empty barrier to begin with. Drop the
code block from __end_that_request_first().

postflush, fua) from visible ordering mode selectors
(QUEUE_ORDERED_*). Ordering types are now named QUEUE_ORDERED_BY_*
while action masks are named QUEUE_ORDERED_DO_*.
This change is necessary to add QUEUE_ORDERED_DO_BAR and make it

After many improvements on kblockd_flush_work, it is now identical to
cancel_work_sync, so a direct call to cancel_work_sync is suggested.
The only difference is that cancel_work_sync is a GPL symbol,

Allow the scsi request REQ_QUIET flag to be propagated to the buffer
file system layer. The basic ideas is to pass the flag from the scsi
request to the bio (block IO) and then to the buffer layer. The buffer
layer can then suppress needless printks.
This patch declutters the kernel log by removed the 40-50 (per lun)
buffer io error messages seen during a boot in my multipath setup . It
is a good chance any real errors will be missed in the "noise" it the
logs without this patch.
During boot I see blocks of messages like
"
__ratelimit: 211 callbacks suppressed
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242847
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 1
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242878
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242872
"
in my logs.
My disk environment is multipath fiber channel using the SCSI_DH_RDAC
code and multipathd. This topology includes an "active" and "ghost"
path for each lun. IO's to the "ghost" path will never complete and the
SCSI layer, via the scsi device handler rdac code, quick returns the IOs
to theses paths and sets the REQ_QUIET scsi flag to suppress the scsi
layer messages.
I am wanting to extend the QUIET behavior to include the buffer file
system layer to deal with these errors as well. I have been running this
patch for a while now on several boxes without issue. A few runs of
bonnie++ show no noticeable difference in performance in my setup.
Thanks for John Stultz for the quiet_error finalization.

For sync IO, we'll often do them serialized. This means we'll be touching
the queue timer for every IO, as opposed to only occasionally like we
do for queued IO. Instead of deleting the timer when the last request
is removed, just let continue running. If a new request comes up soon
we then don't have to readd the timer again. If no new requests arrive,
the timer will expire without side effect later.
This improves high iops sync IO by ~1%.

Now the rq->deadline can't be zero if the request is in the

This was a forward port of work done by Mathieu Desnoyers, I changed it to
encode the 'what' parameter on the tracepoint name, so that one can register
interest in specific events and not on classes of events to then check the
'what' parameter.

There's no point in having too short SG_IO timeouts, since if the
command does end up timing out, we'll end up through the reset sequence
that is several seconds long in order to abort the command that timed
out.
As a result, shorter timeouts than a few seconds simply do not make
sense, as the recovery would be longer than the timeout itself.
Add a BLK_MIN_SG_TIMEOUT to match the existign BLK_DEFAULT_SG_TIMEOUT.

Update FMODE_NDELAY before each ioctl call so that we can kill the

Fix setting of max_segment_size and seg_boundary mask for stacked md/dm
devices.
When stacking devices (LVM over MD over SCSI) some of the request queue
parameters are not set up correctly in some cases by default, namely
max_segment_size and and seg_boundary mask.
If you create MD device over SCSI, these attributes are zeroed.
Problem become when there is over this mapping next device-mapper mapping
- queue attributes are set in DM this way:
request_queue max_segment_size seg_boundary_mask
SCSI 65536 0xffffffff
MD RAID1 0 0
LVM 65536 -1 (64bit)
Unfortunately bio_add_page (resp. bio_phys_segments) calculates number of
physical segments according to these parameters.
During the generic_make_request() is segment cout recalculated and can
increase bio->bi_phys_segments count over the allowed limit. (After
bio_clone() in stack operation.)
Thi is specially problem in CCISS driver, where it produce OOPS here
BUG_ON(creq->nr_phys_segments > MAXSGENTRIES);
(MAXSEGENTRIES is 31 by default.)
Sometimes even this command is enough to cause oops:
dd iflag=direct if=/dev/<vg>/<lv> of=/dev/null bs=128000 count=10
This command generates bios with 250 sectors, allocated in 32 4k-pages
(last page uses only 1024 bytes).
For LVM layer, it allocates bio with 31 segments (still OK for CCISS),
unfortunatelly on lower layer it is recalculated to 32 segments and this
violates CCISS restriction and triggers BUG_ON().
The patch tries to fix it by:
* initializing attributes above in queue request constructor
blk_queue_make_request()
* make sure that blk_queue_stack_limits() inherits setting
(DM uses its own function to set the limits because it
blk_queue_stack_limits() was introduced later. It should probably switch
to use generic stack limit function too.)
* sets the default seg_boundary value in one place (blkdev.h)
* use this mask as default in DM (instead of -1, which differs in 64bit)

blkdev_dequeue_request() and elv_dequeue_request() are equivalent and
both start the timeout timer. Barrier code dequeues the original
barrier request but doesn't passes the request itself to lower level
driver, only broken down proxy requests; however, as the original
barrier code goes through the same dequeue path and timeout timer is
started on it. If barrier sequence takes long enough, this timer
expires but the low level driver has no idea about this request and
oops follows.
Timeout timer shouldn't have been started on the original barrier
request as it never goes through actual IO. This patch unexports
elv_dequeue_request(), which has no external user anyway, and makes it
operate on elevator proper w/o adding the timer and make
blkdev_dequeue_request() call elv_dequeue_request() and add timer.
Internal users which don't pass the request to driver - barrier code
and end_that_request_last() - are converted to use
elv_dequeue_request().

If the size passed in is OK but we end up mapping too many segments,
we call the unmap path directly like from IO completion. But from IO
completion we have an extra reference to the bio, so this error case
goes OOPS when it attempts to free and already free bio.
Fix it by getting an extra reference to the bio before calling the
unmap failure case.

We run into system boot failure with kernel 2.6.28-rc. We found it on a
couple of machines, including T61 notebook, nehalem machine, and another
HPC NX6325 notebook. All the machines use FedoraCore 8 or FedoraCore 9.
With kernel prior to 2.6.28-rc, system boot doesn't fail.
I debug it and locate the root cause. Pls. see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11899
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471517
As a matter of fact, there are 2 bugs.
1)root=/dev/sda1, system boot randomly fails. Mostly, boot for 5 times
and fails once. nash has a bug. Some of its functions misuse return
value 0. Sometimes, 0 means timeout and no uevent available. Sometimes,
0 means nash gets an uevent, but the uevent isn't block-related (for
exmaple, usb). If by coincidence, kernel tells nash that uevents are
available, but kernel also set timeout, nash might stops collecting
other uevents in queue if current uevent isn't block-related. I work
out a patch for nash to fix it.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18858
2) root=LABEL=/, system always can't boot. initrd init reports
switchroot fails. Here is an executation branch of nash when booting:
(1) nash read /sys/block/sda/dev; Assume major is 8 (on my desktop)
(2) nash query /proc/devices with the major number; It found line
"8 sd";
(3) nash use 'sd' to search its own probe table to find device (DISK)
type for the device and add it to its own list;
(4) Later on, it probes all devices in its list to get filesystem
labels; scsi register "8 sd" always.
When major is 259, nash fails to find the device(DISK) type. I enables
CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT=y when compiling kernel, so 259 is picked up
for device /dev/sda1, which causes nash to fail to find device (DISK)
type.
To fixing issue 2), I create a patch for nash and another patch for
kernel.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18859
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18837
Below is the patch for kernel 2.6.28-rc4. It registers blkext, a new
block device in proc/devices.
With 2 patches on nash and 1 patch on kernel, I boot my machines for
dozens of times without failure.

This patch (as1159b) changes the timeout routines in the block core to
use round_jiffies_up(). There's no point in rounding the timer
deadline down, since if it expires too early we will have to restart
it.
The patch also removes some unnecessary tests when a request is
removed from the queue's timer list.

Block queue supports two usage models - one where block driver peeks
at the front of queue using elv_next_request(), processes it and
finishes it and the other where block driver peeks at the front of
queue, dequeue the request using blkdev_dequeue_request() and finishes
it. The latter is more flexible as it allows the driver to process
multiple commands concurrently.
These two inconsistent usage models affect the block layer
implementation confusing. For some, elv_next_request() is considered
the issue point while others consider blkdev_dequeue_request() the
issue point.
Till now the inconsistency mostly affect only accounting, so it didn't
really break anything seriously; however, with block layer timeout,
this inconsistency hits hard. Block layer considers
elv_next_request() the issue point and adds timer but SCSI layer
thinks it was just peeking and when the request can't process the
command right away, it's just left there without further processing.
This makes the request dangling on the timer list and, when the timer
goes off, the request which the SCSI layer and below think is still on
the block queue ends up in the EH queue, causing various problems - EH
hang (failed count goes over busy count and EH never wakes up),
WARN_ON() and oopses as low level driver trying to handle the unknown
command, etc. depending on the timing.
As SCSI midlayer is the only user of block layer timer at the moment,
moving blk_add_timer() to elv_dequeue_request() fixes the problem;
however, this two usage models definitely need to be cleaned up in the
future.
